Members don't see this ad.

You can also ask ahead of time to see if they can give you a preferred time slot. I work FT and asked for the earliest slot so I could still go into work after and not miss out on too much of my day.

In the same situation. Did they accommodate this? How/when did you ask?

In the same situation. Did they accommodate this? How/when did you ask?

I asked like a week and a half before because I was getting worried about not getting a time as we were heading into Thanksgiving, which really meant that there were like 6 business days before the day of the interview. I asked for the 12-1PM slot and they gave me the 12PM slot. As others have mentioned, I didn't get the specific time until maybe 2-3 days prior.

Anyone receive any post-II decisions last week? Hoping we heard back this week I feel like its been oddly silent.

 

[jlil1]

Not yet. I only interviewed on 11/01, so not necessarily expecting a response yet, but still getting anxious all the same haha

8 weeks for me this week and also anxious so I get that

 

[Mr.Shawarma]

I interviewed here earlier and wanted to ask you guys if this is your top choice (especially OOS students), what stands out about this school compared to others?

Have you heard back from them yet?

Nope

Have been on hold for several months lol. Big part of me knows I do not deserve to get an II from this school and knows I am going to be rejected, but is for some reason still holding out hope anyways.

The biggest thing for me is their focus on public health. The curriculum really stands out amongst other schools.

I just received an II earlier today. The last time I checked my status was Friday, and I wasn’t on “hold”.

I submitted the secondary Oct 31.

[2024 or 5 ?]

Waitlist statistics?

 

[Pre Med Hopeful 456]

Hang in there. I am rooting for you!

 

[lachicamexicana]

Do they send post-II R's throughout the cycle or just at the end?

 

[jlil1]

Hang in there. I am rooting for you!

Thank you

 

[tinkertots23]

You should hear back in about 4-8 weeks after your interview. They waitlist most people, accept some, and reject some. If you are waitlisted and do not end up getting off the waitlist, then you would know sometime in April/May/June.

In email they said the waitlist would remain open until July most movement in spring.

 

[SpideyMD]

How long after the waitlist should you wait to send a letter of interest or a letter of intent?

 

[proverbial_soup]

WL. Interviewed September, took a while to hear back

 

[tinkertots23]

Thank you for the info! I was going through last cycle's thread and seems like people were getting off the waitlist in mostly March and April. They apparently also send informal likely emails letting people know there is a spot open and if they'd like to move off the waitlist.

 

[meddemddmdood]

For waitlisted interviewees, they will send a post-II R in early August based on my previous experience.

I've seen only one person get a post-II R decision shortly after their interview, so I'm assuming it's rare.

 

[jlil1]

Yeah i feel like people usually only get rejected after interviews if its very egregious or something bad happened during the interview or what not

 

[sriracha3]

Accepted just now! Interviewed a couple of weeks ago. I am so shocked as I didn’t think my interview went well. This is my first acceptance as well.

To everybody that is currently waiting to get an interview, scheduled to interview, WL, or unfortunately rejected I am so rooting for you. You all are some of the most passionate, humble, self motivated individuals and will go on to become phenomenal physicians and really make a difference in your patients lives.

congrats! Did the A come as an email or phone call? I interviewed just over a month ago, so seeing the activity in this thread over the last hour has gotten my heart rate up lol

Interviewed 2 weeks ago, and feeling the same. But I believe they email everyone regardless of the decision.

Yes definitely. My HR was also up a couple of weeks ago looking at this forum lol. So they email you.

WL for the second year in a row. Hang in there, friends.

 

[anavrincafe]

Does anyone know what the chances are of getting off the waitlist (OOS) at GW?

 

[jlil1]

No idea but if you look at past threats there seems to be some waitlist movement closer to spring. Also don't think in-state vs out of state matters.

 

[meddemddmdood]

Same here.

Does anyone know what the chances are of getting off the waitlist (OOS) at GW?

GW's post-II acceptance is about 28% (directly accepted and WL->accepted), so realistically quite low. However, low =/= impossible and there is always a good amount of movement starting April for interviewees of all months.

 

[2024 or 5 ?]

Waitlist is sooo frustrating. Without an A, have no idea for my plans for next year. Don't know if need to retake MCAT etc. Would love to go to GW.

[hopefulasap]

Anyone who was complete mid august still on hold post ii?

 

[mannatee22]

Is it even worth submitting my secondaries now?

 

[throwaway198773]

Is it even worth submitting my secondaries now?

Honestly, it would depend on your application/ties to the school or area. 7 days away from the deadline is most likely a donation but you never know. This process will never be understood.

 

[immaterialgirls]
